Why is it important?

Prevents pregnancy-related gum disease

Hormonal changes increase the risk of gum inflammation and periodontal problems, which can affect your overall health.

Protects your baby's health

Poor oral health during pregnancy is linked to complications such as low birth weight and premature births.

Promotes your comfort

Maintaining good oral health reduces discomfort caused by pregnancy-related dental problems, such as sensitive gums or cavities.

Our Process

Our pregnancy dental care is tailored to your needs to ensure a safe and comfortable experience.

01 Initial Consultation

We start with a thorough discussion about your health, the stage of your pregnancy, and any oral problems you may be experiencing. A gentle examination can identify potential problems such as gum inflammation or the onset of cavities.

02 Personalized Treatment

We provide safe treatments for you and your baby, avoiding unnecessary procedures or medications. Preventive care, such as scalings and fluoride applications, is a priority to maintain your oral health during pregnancy.

03 Follow-up and Advice

We give you tips for managing pregnancy-related oral changes, such as sensitive gums or the effects of morning sickness. Regular checkups are planned to monitor your oral health as your pregnancy progresses.

04 Personalized Action Plan

Key Indicators

Gum Health

Hormonal changes during pregnancy can cause swelling and bleeding gums, which we monitor carefully.

Caries

Increased acidity in the mouth and dietary changes increase the risk of cavities, which we are proactively addressing.

Oral Hygiene Routine

We review your daily practices and offer tailored recommendations for maintaining good oral health during pregnancy.

Pregnancy Tumors

We check for the presence of small benign growths on the gums, called pregnancy tumors, and advise on their management.

Effects of Morning Sickness

We assess the impact of morning sickness on your teeth and suggest strategies to protect your enamel against stomach acid.
